ABOUT DR. ANDREW HUBERMAN
Andrew Huberman, Ph.D., is a neuroscientist and tenured Professor in the Department of Neurobiology at the #Stanford University School of Medicine. He has made numerous significant contributions to the fields of brain development, brain function and neural plasticity, which is the ability of our nervous system to rewire and learn new behaviors, skills and cognitive functioning.
Huberman is a McKnight Foundation and Pew Foundation Fellow and was awarded the Cogan Award in 2017, given to the scientist making the most significant discoveries in the study of vision. His lab’s most recent work focuses on the influence of vision and respiration on human performance and brain states such as fear and courage. He also works on neural regeneration and directs a clinical trial to promote visual restoration in diseases that cause blindness. Huberman is also actively involved in developing tools now in use by the elite military in the U.S. and Canada, athletes, and technology industries to optimize performance in high stress environments, enhance neural plasticity, mitigate stress, and optimize sleep.

Get rid of social media and television. Spend time in nature , change diet You will have vast improvement .

I bought a small red light & nir device a few years ago and have used it on and off. It definitely helps with muscle and joint pain. It's good to know it helps with the vision and I believe I'm already getting the required amount.

Very interesting study indeed. The advantages of Red Light Therapy appear to be expanding all the time. Thanks for sharing. 👍

Excellent video and the most detailed explanation of RL Therapy application for eye health. I've been using RNIL Therapy (my device's Power Density is 1,200 mW/cm2 at a 1-inch distance/660 nm/810 nm) for other applications going on several years now, so I was very apprehensive about keeping my eyes open when using that particular device because of its blinding effect. I read numerous articles about the study [3 min, first 3 hours, 1 x week], but none gave as detailed an explanation about the process, and more specifically the wavelength and how to be guided by the natural eyes' protective blinking reflexes, than your video. I do have another 660 nm device (Tendlite), which I will be using for my eye health, so thank you for the critically useful information. The eyes are nothing to play, or experiment, with!

I think it would be helpful to mention how far away from the red light device should we be?
-
This is absolutely fantastic, thank you ! 😃👍

I just received a book from a friend that is all about the latest, alternative pet remedies. In it is a chapter on light therapy.

The study "Optically Improved Mitochondrial Function Redeems Aged Human Visual Decline" stated - " Participants were asked to use the light to illuminate their dominant eye every morning for 3 minutes and to repeat this daily for 2 weeks." So this seems to contradict Dr. Huberman's assertion of using red light therapy for only 3 minutes a week. Is there a citation somewhere for the 3 minutes a week recommendation? I would prefer that over daily if possible. Additionally, it's very important to state the illumination intensity. From the study "Energies at the cornea were approximately 40 mW/cm2 which often resulted in a mild green after image for approximately 5–10 seconds." This would suggest that you would want to measure 40 mW/cm2 at ~660/670nm where you plan to place your eyeballs in front of the red light device. 100 mW/cm2 might be way to intense (or even damaging?) and 10mW/cm2 may have no benefit at all. You would need a solar power meter or spectrometer to correctly measure this before staring into the light. Of course this was a pilot study so more investigation is needed. Are the benefits permanent after 2 weeks or do you need constant therapy of unknown duration and intensity to maintain? And what, if any are the long term effects? There are no answers yet.

❤ Thank you for sharing this podcast. I had heard RLT was good for vision but I wanted to check from a reliable source what the parameters were. This answered all my questions!
-
Great. How I went from 20/50 to 20/20.
-
This video is a year old.What are the protocols now to repair the retina cells?I'm seeing several studies that have some good result.SI just bought platinum biomax 300 to repair my eyes.What do you suggest the protocol be
-
excellent and very useful
-
Has anyone found these filters that you can put on a flashlight (or other light source)? I've looked and looked, to no avail...
-
Does the density of the red light being used make a difference, what nm of red light was used, what distance from the eyes and do you keep the eyes open unless you have the urge to blink? Thank you
-
Great information! Thanks!
-
I wish I were a developer since this sounds like a fairly simple app for the Apple Vision Pro. Just a red light with a timer.
-
thank you..............wish you would give info on quality of red light device and specs
-
if i use kooze one the mini. its mix red lighr and near infrared its safe to look at it at 6 -30 ' inchi
-
Thank you very much for sharing Sir
-
Much thanks.
